Setting up a few new users, two new hires yesterday.
Lots of onboarding going on here. One new hire is in his notice period with previous employer and got his desk phone delivered yesterday. And we hired two more yesterday, so gotta get phones moving for them now!
So do your staff work from home Scott? Do they visit client sites on a schedule or only when req'd or not at all? Just interested.

Like most "simple" tools, you can do a lot of managing who is allowed to run what with it.

True. During my practice session I had to reference man pages a couple of times for syntax, but I'm ok with that for the exam, since they're available.

hey i'm thinking of running up a linux distro as a VM on Hyper-V to run mesh central on.
I don't really want to have to remember too much linux stuff, so what is one of the better linux distros for windows users?
I usually look for something with lots of online support/forums so when I google for answers I get lots of results. -

I have only used Ubuntu, CentOS and Fedora as VMs on Hyper-V.

I used Ubuntu for my MeshCentral instance since that's what's used in their install documentation.

If you know one already, that one will be better. Otherwise, pick the one that just generally does best what you want to do.

think i'll have a crack Ubuntu.
Regarding mesh central, can anyone remember where the My Files folder lives in the filesystem? I'm trying to locate the 'My Files' folder so I can dump some files in there via Windows Explorer.
